The Makeshift Lounge with its many music industry investors will ensure that the place is always full of promising newcomers. But remember, we're still in L.A., so don't be surprised when your favorite Rock Stars pop in for an intimate acoustic performance.
Scheduled for construction in the heart of Hollywood, The Makeshift Lounge will be only a short walk for the many musicians of the area. But then there's the food -- yet another reason for people from all over L.A. to visit. The managing partners of The Makeshift Lounge have worked for many years in some of the best restaurants throughout the city.
From 5-star dinning rooms to popular nightclubs, this group has and will continue to focus on food quality and innovation, a high level of customer service and most of all, fun. The Makeshift Lounge will be open for lunch and dinner 7 days per week until 2am. They could close it up earlier but no one wants to be the one to tell the band that they have to go home. It's a win-win situation for all involved.
They will be spending a great deal of focus on the interior. It is not to be designed like the "standard" music hall. A key element to the atmosphere will be how it is warm and inviting for all. The designer has had much success with some of the most highly regarded establishments in Los Angeles and he has been selected for his ability to incorporate the concept with the space.
See you there!

Filmed in Nashville during the 44th anniversary of the Grand Ole Opry, The Nashville Sound is the most authentic visual experience available on the subject of country western music. Produced in 1969, The Nashville Sound pinpoints the exact moment when country music went "mainstream" in American pop-culture: the year Johnny Cash albums outsold the Beatles.
Widely recognized as the inspiration for Robert Altman's Oscar-winning film "Nashville," The Nashville Sound features over 40 of the most important country performers of all time: Johnny Cash, whose performance on the Opry stage is the climax of the film, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Charley Pride, Tex Ritter and many more.
Interspersed among the performances are interviews with singers, fans and music industry executives, plus historic behind-the-scenes footage of events taking place in-between performances, auditions and the musician's personal lives.
Key Musical Highlights: performances from Loretta Lynn, 7-time Grammy winner Dolly Parton, 11-time Grammy winner Johnny Cash, the record-setting Charley Pride, the "Father of Bluegrass" Bill Monroe, and the "King of Country" Roy Acuff, along with footage of Hank Williams notorious souped-up Cadillac, the homes and backyards of many of the performers and an all-star golf tournament featuring Minnie Pearl and Glen Campbell.
Xenon Pictures is offering The Nashville Sound on DVD at $24.98 (Feature run time: 85 minutes; not rated). Genre: Music Documentary. 1969
